Mount Kilimanjaro: Summit Africa
ARE YOU READY?
Climb through rainforest, trek dusty alpine desert, and press on through ancient lava towers into the cold, quiet world where every step is earned. This is Mount Kilimanjaro: 5,895 metres of laughs, grit, and legendary memories of watching the sun rise from the highest mountain in Africa.
Adventure inclusive of permits, guides, porters, water on trek, accommodation, 90% of meals, training plans, on-trip HA rep and airport transfer.
Is Kili for me?
How's your fitness?
You don't need to be a blitzing 2:30 marathon runner to climb Kilimanjaro. We provide top-end training plans, and the goal of summiting means your motivation to get in tip-top shape will never be stronger!
No Altitude Experience?
80% of our trekkers have never been at altitude before, that’s why we include acclimatisation days, and always climb high, and sleep low.
10 Days not enough?
You can celebrate summitting the tallest freestanding mountain in the world, by continuing the adventure through the Safari & Zanzibar extension trip, with 6 and 9 day options.

FAQs
Can I defer?
Yes! There is a £35 charge for date changes made 1 month after booking.
What’s the group size?
20.
Where will I stay?
If you are on a General trip, you will be staying in a Hotel, and on the trek you will be camping in tents.
If you are on a Students trip, you’ll stay in a shared same-sex hostel (breakfast included). During the trek, you’ll be camping in tents.
The trips are split to ensure that the group you are in is best suited to you, with other people at similar stages in life looking to explore the world and take on a challenge worth talking about.
The only difference in itinerary is that students stay in hostel dorms, rather than hotels, allowing them a cheaper trip.
